第二板块 句型巧析
1．After winning at the Oscars，a film will have no difficulty in selling admission tickets because everyone will want to see it！一部影片在奥斯卡上获奖后，这部电影在门票销售方面将没有任何问题，因为人人都想一睹为快。
本句中含有“have no difficulty in doing sth.”结构，其中的difficulty为不可数名词，介词in可以省略。
归纳拓展
“做某事有(没有)困难”的常见的表达方式有：
(1)have some/much/great/no/little/a little difficulty(in)doing sth./with sth.
(2)There's some/much difficulty(in)doing sth.
(3)do sth.with/without difficulty
(4)It's difficult(for sb.)to do sth.
(5)find...difficulty(in)doing sth.
(6)have a hard time(in)doing sth.
(7)have(on)trouble(in)doing sth.
Visitors have difficulty in finding hotel accommodation during the summer.在夏季，游客们很难找到旅馆住宿。
They carried out their plan without difficulty.
他们顺利地完成了计划。
You can't imagine the difficulty she had(in)educating the children.你很难想象她在教育孩子上的困难。
【点津】 考查该结构时，常把difficulty/trouble提前，以构成定语从句，并省略介词in，使得have与后面的动词直接连在一起，以至于同学们很难想到要用doing。
2．Do you prefer to go to the cinema or watch a film at home？你是更喜欢去电影院看电影还是在家看电影？
prefer的现在分词、过去式以及过去分词分别为：preferring，preferred，preferred。其具体用法如下：
(1)“prefer＋名词/代词/动名词”意为“更喜欢……”。
Do you prefer cooking for yourself or eating in a restaurant？你更喜欢自己做饭还是下馆子？
(2)“prefer＋不定式”意为“喜欢做某事”。
I prefer to spend the weekends at home.
我喜欢在家里过周末。
(3)(would)prefer sb to do sth意为“想要/宁愿某人做某事”。
I would prefer you not to disturb him.
我宁愿你不要去打扰他。
(4)prefer A to B意为“与B比起来更喜欢A”，其中to是介词，不是动词不定式符号，A与B是平行结构，可以是名词或是动名词。
Most people prefer trains to buses.
比起公共汽车，大多数人更喜欢火车。
I prefer writing a term paper to taking an examination.
我宁愿写一篇学期论文也不愿参加考试。
(5)prefer to do...rather than do...宁愿做……而不愿做……。
Rather than go on holiday to the seaside，I prefer to work.
我宁愿工作，而不愿到海边度假。
(6)prefer that sb(should)do sth宁愿某人做某事。在that引导的宾语从句中，谓语应当用“should＋动词原形”，其中should可以省略。
We prefer that each new student should take a science course.我们宁愿每位新生修一门理科课程。
I prefer that someone else should do this.
我宁愿别人来做这件事。
3．Joining us in the studio are Isabel Rose from the Cannes Film Festival，Hanz Muller from the Berlin International Film Festival，Kathy Barnes from the Sundance Film Festival，Maria Bella from the Venice Film Festival，Mike Taylor from the Toronto International Film Festival and Xu Li from the Shanghai International Film Festival.来到我们演播室的有来自戛纳电影节的伊莎贝尔·罗斯，来自柏林国际电影节的汉茨·穆勒，来自圣丹斯电影节的凯西·巴恩斯，来自威尼斯电影节的玛利亚·贝拉，来自多伦多国际电影节的迈克·泰勒以及来自上海国际电影节的徐立。
这是一个倒装句，正常的语序应该是：Isabel Rose...and Xu Li from the Shanghai International Film Festival are joining us in the studio.当句子主语太长时，为保持句子平衡，往往使用倒装结构将主语放在句子的后面。
Nearby was the house in which they had lived for more than 20 years.附近就是他们住了20多年的那幢房子。
Gone are the days when people waited in a queue to make a longdistance call. 人们排队等着打长途电话的日子一去不复返了。
单词填空
1．Ladies and gentlemen，welcome to my program.________ me this evening is Dr.Gray.
A．To join
B．Join
C．Joined
D．Joining
解析： 句意为“女士们，先生们，欢迎来到我的节目。今晚和我一起做节目的是格瑞博士”。本句为倒装句，正常语序应该是：Dr.Gray is joining me this evening.
答案：D
2．________ spend much money on clothes，I'd prefer to buy some good books.
A．More than B．Other than
C．Rather than D．Better than
解析：考查“prefer to do rather than do”结构。句意为“与其花许多钱买衣服，我宁愿去买些好书”。
答案：C
3．(创新题)So many times ________ people say that they will be happy once they move into the new house，start their job，travel or retire.
A．I have heard
B．have I heard
C．will I hear
D．I will hear
解析：考查语序和时态。在so...that句式中，so＋形容词/副词放在句首时主句要用倒装语序，但此处是so＋名词短语作状语放在句首，应用正常语序；从语意判断这里应用现在完成时，因此选A。
答案：A
4．(创新题)More than a dozen people walked by the unconscious twoyearold girl and didn't give a helping hand，________ shocked the whole nation.
A．which
B．that
C．where
D．when
解析：考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，这里应用which引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面整句话的内容。让全国人民震惊的是十几个人从不省人事的两岁小女孩身边走过竟都没有伸出援助之手。
答案：A
5．(创新题)The project of building a magnificent bridge ________，but it failed because of lack of money.
A．must have been put into practice
B．could have been put into practice
C．might have put into practice
D．can have put into practice
解析：考查情态动词。根据关键信息“but it failed”可知，这个工程本来能够付诸实施，但却没有。could have done表示“本来能够做某事而实际未做”，又因project和put into practice之间是动宾关系，故选B项。
答案：B
6．(2012年江苏淮安市学情调查)________ her mother taught her to love poetry，her father gave her the gift of storytelling.
A．While
B．When
C．Since
D．As
解析：考查连词。句意：她的母亲教她热爱诗歌，而她的父亲给了她讲故事的天赋。由语意可知应选A项，while在此是并列连词，意为“而，却”，表对比。
答案：A
7．________，his idea was finally adopted by the manager.
A．Strange as might it sound
B．As it might sound strange
C．As strange it might sound
D．Strange as it might sound
解析：考查让步状语从句及倒装。句意：尽管听起来可能很奇怪，但是他的想法最终被经理采纳了。as引导让步状语从句，要用倒装语序。
答案：D
(八)本期看点：阅读理解之词义猜测题
词义猜测题考查学生对文中关键词句(实词、短语、句子中的部分、句子)的理解。阅读理解题所考查的词或短语的意义常常不停留在字面上，要根据语境来判断。常用的提问方式有：
1．What does the underlined word“...”in Paragraph...probably mean?
2．The word“...”in Paragraph...means/can be best replaced by ________.
3．The underlined word“...”in the first paragraph refers to ________.
4．As used in the passage，the phrase“...”suggests ________.
5．From the passage，we can infer that the word/phrase“...”is/refers to ________.
6．The word“...”is closest in meaning to ________.
【解题导引】
猜测词义是指在阅读过程中根据对语篇的信息、逻辑、背景知识及语言结构等的综合理解去猜测或推断某一生词、难词、关键词的意思。它是一种非常有用的阅读技巧，获得这种技巧之后，读者在阅读过程中能很快通过上下文提供的线索或生词本身的结构特点推断出词义来，从而提高阅读速度和阅读能力。方法见下图：
【典例】
1．见形辨义
New archaeological discoveries suggest that trade between Europe and Asia along the Silk Road probably began in some form many centuries earlier than once thought.The findings，coupled with a widening range of scientific and
historical research，could add a fascinating new page to the epic of the Silk Road.
72．The word“coupled”in the first paragraph could best be replaced by ________.
A．produced
B．continued
C．doubled
D．combined
答案：D
构词法
coupled是派生词，ed是形容词后缀，couple作动词意为“连接，结合”，ed将动词couple变成了形容词
coupled，由此可推知，coupled意为“连接的，结合的”，故选D项。
2．望文生义
Kirsten Best
Poet & Writer
“When things are getting hard，a voice inside my head tells me that I can’t achieve something.Then，there are other distractions，such as family or hobbies.The key is to concentrate.When I feel tense，it helps a lot to repeat words such as‘calm’，
‘peace’or‘focus’，either out loud or silently in my mind.
It makes me feel more in control and
increase my
confidence.This
is
a habit that
can become
second
nature
quite
easily and is
a powerful psychological(心理的)tool.”
62．What does the underlined word“distractions”probably refer to?
A．Ways that help one to focus.
B．Words that help one to feel less tense.
C．Activities that turn one’s attention away.
D．Habits that make it hard for one to relax.
Step 1：准确定位
在原文中定位第三段。
Step 2：分析上下文
本段主要说的是如何集中注意力并放松。从本段前三句可知，concentrate的作用应该是避免distractions的出现，故concentrate应与distractions对应的动词distract意义相反，所以distractions可以理解成things that make a person can’t concentrate，也就是使人不能集中注意力的事物。从选项来看，C项“转移注意力的活动”最为接近，所以选C项。
3．拆句知义
Days 1－3：UK－Shanghai
Fly to the great city of Shanghai and in the evening sample traditional Shanghai food.Visit the beautiful Yu Gardens，Old Town，Shanghai Museum，cross the Great Nanpu Bridge and tour the Pudong area.
Also explore Xintiandi with its 1920’s style Shikumen buildings and end your stay in Shanghai with an amazing Huangpu River evening tour.
64．The underlined word“sample”in the passage probably means“________”．
A．buy
B．reserve
C．taste
D．make
答案：C
Step 1：准确定位
Fly to the great city of Shanghai and in the evening sample traditional Shanghai food.
Step 2：剖析句子
句意为：飞往大城市上海，晚上sample传统的上海食物。本文讲的是中国14日旅游的日程安排。首先分析画线词所在句子的结构，这里的sample应该和fly是并列谓语，所以它应该是个动词。结合旅游日程安排这个前提，并根据其后面的宾语traditional Shanghai food来推测，sample应该表示“品尝”，故taste最佳。
【经典有约】
There is an interpreter named Joseph Garcia who did a study in the mid1980’s.He found that children actually learn sign language quicker than they learn to speak.He also found that using sign language
does not inhibit children from speaking，they actually transit easily from using sign language to speaking.Learning sign language can actually make children smarter.
It can be very difficult for children that have parents that are deaf or the other way around.Children who have deaf parents can become burdened unnecessarily with having to interpret conversations that they really should not be a part of.Also parents with deaf children struggle to help their children fit in.If most people knew some basic sign language this could decrease the burden on those who are deaf.
Sign language is not just for the hearing impaired but can help just about anyone.It is beneficial to children with disabilities or behavioral problems.Being able to understand your baby creates a new bond between parents and children.Learning sign language can be a benefit not only to your family but to everyone around you.Teaching sign language for children has so many benefits that helping others that can’thear is just an added plus.
1．According to the study of Joseph Garcia，we can know that ________.
A．children can speak earlier with the help of sign language
B．children would like to use sign language very much
C．sign language is specially designed for children
D．children can’t speak without using sign language
解析：根据文章第二段第三句可以推知，手势能使得孩子说话更早、更快。
答案：A
2．The underlined word“inhibit”in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.
A．encourage
B．change
C．follow
D．stop
解析：根据上下文的意思，尤其是结合下句的意思可推知，手势不会阻止孩子说话。
答案：D
3．It can be inferred from the third paragraph that ________.
A.
children can’t communicate with parents who are deaf
B．parents can’t communicate with children who are deaf
C．sign language makes it easier to communicate with the deaf
D．it is impossible for those deaf to communicate with others
解析：根据文章第三段可知，和聋哑人交流有一定的困难，但是结合该段最后一句可知，手语能使得与聋哑人的交流更轻松。
答案：C
4．The author believes that sign language ________.
A．can benefit everyone
B．is only for those naughty children
C．can’t be helpful to the family
D．is just for those deaf people
解析：根据文章最后一段第一句和倒数第二句可推知，作者认为手语对每一个人都有益处。
答案：A

1．考纲点拨
开放性作文不同于传统的书面表达。传统的书面表达是控制性写作，即通过要点提示、图画、表格等命题形式来限定书面表达的内容、人称、时态、字数、文体等，自由发挥的空间不大，在一定程度上限制了考生的思维。而开放性作文只给出主题、两三点提示或一段素材，然后由考生在此基础上充分发挥想象力，自由发挥，自由创作。开放性作文对考生的能力要求更高，考查也更全面。它不仅考查考生的书面语言表达能力、语言组织能力，而且考查考生的逻辑思维能力、发散思维能力、丰富的想象力以及创新思维能力。
2．命题特点和应试策略
针对开放类作文的灵活性与开放性，名师为考生提出以下几个写作步骤：
(1)认真审题，把握要求，找准提示语中的关键句
开放作文需要考生根据试题提示的要求进行立意，确定文章的中心思想。立意的基础是审题。因此，考生在着手写作之前，要认真审题，确实把握命题要求，找准提示语中的关键句。
(2)依据关键句，草拟提纲，梳理文章脉络
通过认真审题，找准关键句以后，下一步的任务就是如何安排已选定的这些材料，要为自己心中所设想的材料草拟一个提纲，梳理清楚先后顺序。这样写起来就会有条不紊、条理清楚、详略得当，使得所写的文章中心突出。
(3)准确定位人称、时态，遣词造句要扬长避短
开放作文通常以提供一个故事材料片段为主。大部分情况下，文中所使用的动词时态以一般过去时为主，但人称的使用较为灵活，考生应该依据文章提示准确定位人称。
②在人称、时态准确定位以后，考生应将重点放在文章的遣词造句上。考生应尽可能运用自己熟悉的单词、短语或句型来灵活表达，避免单词、短语或句型的重复使用。
简而言之，开放作文的写作思路和汉语作文非常相似。首先要明确主题，然后根据主题构建文章的主体结构，即写作提纲，最后在写作过程中要突出主题、层次分明。
